Yep, we all need distractions in life as a means to avoid working for a
living.

There were references to XML in a commercial on American TV some years ago
when it was still fab.

I went to an interview this morning where I was asked if I was familiar with
FOSI and EPIC.   Some technologies are the Energizer Bunnies of their
fields.  Don't throw away your COBOL manuals just yet.

> 3 or 4 years ago there was a UK TV advertisement that showed someone
in a very boring meeting.  The boringness was indicated by references to
"XML namespaces" and "infoset". 

Funny...here that would have been "John Kerry" and "The Washington
Redskins".
